Tanker Shuttle Drill with Modena
 
By Wagontown Volunteers
March 16, 2025
 

On the morning of Sunday, March 16, Tanker and Engine 35 traveled to the grounds of the Cleveland-Cliffs Steel Complex next to the Chester County Public Safety Training Campus in South Coatesville Borough to assist the Modena Fire Company (Station 37) on a rural water supply drill.
Tankers from Wagontown, Modena, Honey Brook, and Keystone Valley shuttled water from a hydrant on the south side of the parking lot to a dump site that was set up on the north side of the complex, which then was fed to a "fire".

Engine 35's crew was set up at the hydrant to fill the tankers while Engine 37 pulled water from the dump tanks.

It was a good learning experience for the newer members and a good refresher for the "old guys".

Thanks to Modena for the invite!
